16.5 and 16.6: Surfaces, Area, and Surface Integrals
E. Kim
Notation follows Thomas’ Calculus: Early Transcendentals (12th Edition) as
closely as possible
Parametric form
Suppose r(u,v) = f(u,v)i + g(u,v)j + h(u,v)k with bounds a ≤ u ≤ b and
c ≤ v ≤ d defines a surface S.
• The region R: the region in uv-space: a ≤ u ≤ b and c ≤ v ≤ d.
• Surface area differential: dσ = kr ×r k dudv.

• Surface area integral:
¨ dσ=¨ kru×rvkdudv=ˆ dˆ bkru×rvkdudv.

• General integral: To integrate G(x,y,z) over S,

• The region R: the projection of the surface S onto the xy-plane (then
p=k). Or,theprojectionofthesurfaceS ontothexz-plane(thenp = j).
Or, the projection of the surface S onto the yz-plane (then p = i).
• Surface area differential: dσ = k∇Fk dA. Here, dA = dxdy if p = k.

• Surface area integral:
¨ dσ=¨ k∇Fk dA.

• General integral: To integrate G(x,y,z) over S,
¨ G(x,y,z)dσ =¨ G(x,y,z) k∇Fk dA.

Explicit form
S is the set of points (x,y,z) such that z = f(x,y). That is, we look at the
graph of some function f.
